Coaches Poll

[Hooked on Huskers]

Waiting for preseason poll.

 

I hope a couple of "others receiving" votes.  Last year zero votes in final poll.

Don't hold your breath

Ya know what I can’t wait for? The first playoff poll. I was going to start a way too early dedicated thread informing everyone of that fact  but I see we already have a way too early similar posting here so…..

Massey Composite are #55. (only 10 rankings so far).  Notice Buffalo Bulls ..... #46 ...... on paper, Huskers will be an underdog.  Though Illini got #95.

NU will start off 3-0 and head to Norman ranked in the top 25, they will lose that game but they won't drop much and they will hang around 20-25 all year.

Ha!  Very!

 

But I stand by it, they will start off 3-0 and that will get them ranked, like 24th.  Lose to OU and for the most part it won't impact NU's rank all that much.

I really doubt we'd even be ranked at 3-0 with wins over no one.  Big loss to OU and it would take 4-1 or 5-1 to get us back in right now.

Alot of it might depend on the style we win the first 3. 2-3 blowouts might help. But after Oklahoma were 4-0 and were ranked for sure.

They s#!t the bed against Illinois, and everyone freaks out. Then they get the Buffalo and Fordham wins, then go into Norman and shock Oklahoma. The pollsters wait a week until they also shock Michigan State on the road before giving the surprising 4-1 Nebraska Cornhuskers their first Top 25 ranking in years. Nebraska celebrates by coming out flat and losing to Northwestern at Memorial Stadium the next week. 

 

Bank on it.

That would suck, but I could see it happening.

Would being 4-2 with wins over Oklahoma and Michigan State suck that badly?

This sounds spot on

Well the wins over those two would be great but losing to Illinois and Northwestern would suck.
